SIMON K. BAILEY AND GEOGE A. ELLIOTT, OF ROCHESTER, INDIANA.
ARTIFICIAL BAIT.
Specification of Letters Patent. 7
Patented Sept. 26, 1905.
To 0M whom it ntay concern.-
Be it known that we, SIMON K. BAILEY and Gnoen A. ELLIOTT, citizens of the United States, residing at Rochester, in the count-y of Fulton and State of Indiana, have invented new and useful Improvements in Artificial Bait, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to artificial bait, particularly of the kind which comprises a body having spinners at opposite ends and a plurality of hooks secured thereto.
The principal object of the invention is to improve the means of attaching the fish-hooks and spinners to the body, whereby said spinners and hooks may be removed easily and quickly when it is desired to substitute similar devices of a different size or character.
\Vith the foregoing and other objects in view, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in an artificial bait comprising a body preferably formed in the semblance of a minnow and having a longitudinal bore communicating with lateral passages, a plurality of fish-hooks extending into the lateral passages of the body, and a rod extending through the longitudinal bore and engaging the eyes of the several hooks whereby to hold them in place, said rod being readily removable when it is desired to substitute another set of hooks. The spinning devices are mounted upon opposite ends of the rod.
In addition to the foregoing, the invention resides in the particular combination and arrangement of parts and in the precise details of construction hereinafter described and claimed as a practical embodiment thereof.
In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure l is a side elevation of an artificial bait constructed in accordance with the invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal vertical section thereof. Fig. 3 is a transverse section.
Like reference numerals indicate corresponding parts in the different views.
The reference-numeral 1 indicates a body which is formed of any suitable material, such as wood or cork, and is provided in its lower portion with suitable balancing devices, such as lead plugs 2, the function of which is to maintain the bait in proper position within the water. Extending longitudinally through the body 1 is a bore 3, with which communicate a plurality of lateral passages 4:. The
lateral passages 4 preferably extend from one side of the body to the other and are flared at their outer ends, as indicated in Fig. 3, suitable metallic bushings 5 being arranged in said lateral passages to prevent wear upon the material of the body 1. Extending into each of the lateral passages t from opposite sides thereof is a plurality of fish-hooks 6, the eyes 7 of which are engaged by a rod 8, which extends through the longitudinal bore 3 and is readily removable therefrom. At its rear end the rod 8 is provided with a collar 9, which abuts against the rear end of the body 1, and with acollar 10, a spinner 11 being mounted upon said rod between the collars 9 and 10. An eye 12 is formed upon the extreme rear end of the rod 8, a fish-hook 13 being engaged with said eye. The forward end of the rod 8 is screw-threaded to receive a lock-nut 1 and a removable screwcap 15, which is formed with an eye 16, adapted to receive a portion of the fishingline.
Upon the rod 8, between the lock-nut 1 1 and the forward end of the body 1, is a spinner 17.
It will be understood that the screw-cap 15 can be turned upon the rod 8 until itis jammed securely against the lock-nut 14:, and thus prevented from working loose, said lock-nut 14, in addition to this function of jamming the screw-cap 15, also serving to permit the spinner 17 to have ample space in which to rotate upon the rod.
From the foregoing description it will be apparent that by removing the screw-cap 15 and lock-nut 14 the rod 18 may be withdrawn longitudinally from the body 1 by pulling it in a rearward direction, thus releasing the hooks 6 from engagement with the body 1 and permitting hooks of a different size or character to be substituted therefor. The withdrawal of the rod 8 also permits spinners 11 and 17 of a diiferent size or character to be used in connection with the body 1.
The improved artificial bait of this invention is strong, simple, durable, and inexpensive, as well as thoroughly efficient in operation.
Minor changes in the precise embodiment of invention illustrated and described may be made within the scope of the following claims without departing from the spirit of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is- 1. An artilicial bait comprising a body, having a longitudinal bore, and lateral passages coi'nmunieating therewith, fish-hooks extending into the lateral passages of the body, and a rod removably extending through the longitudinal bore and passing through the eyes of the fish-hooks.
2. An artificial bait, comprising a body, having a longitudinal bore, and lateral passages communicating therewith, fish-hooks extending into said lateral passages, a rod removably extending through said longitudinal bore and passing through the eyes of said fishhooks, and a removable cap upon one end of said rod.
3. An artificial bait comprising a body, having a longitudinal bore, and lateral passages communicating therewith, tish-hooks extending into said lateral passages, a rod removably extending through said longitudinal bore and engaging the eyes of said fish-hooks, a fish-hook on the rear end of said rod, spacedapart collars adjacent to the rear end of said rod, one of said collars abutting against the rear end of said body, a spinner mounted on said rod between said collars, a lock-nut on the forward end of said rod, a spinner mounted on said rod between said lock-nut and the forward end of said body, and a screw-cap mounted upon the forward end of said rod and having an eye.
4. An artificial bait comprising a body having lateral passages formed with flared outer ends, liared bushings in said passages, fishhooks having eyes disposed in said bushings, and a rod removably extending through said body and passing through the eyes of said hooks.
5. An artificial bait comprising a body, having a flared passage therein, a fish-hook having its eye disposed in said passage, and a removable rod extending through said body at an angle to said passage and passing through the eye of said hook.
6. An artificial bait comprising a body, having a passage therein, a fish-hook having its eye disposed in said passage, and a removable rod extending through said body at an angle to said passage and passing through the eye of said hook.
In testimony whereof we alfiX our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
